Envious Ways

Abby Ebon

Ed woke up warm, comfortable; he never wanted to open his eyes….and his pillow was breathing. This startled the petit blond to the point that his earlier condition was rendered moot and amber eyes open half lidded to see his 'pillow'.

Envy…well Ed thought it could have been worse - it could have been a Loll, or equally odd critter.

The really bad point in this situation would be when Envy chose to wake up, or when Ed's bladder decided to kick in. Otherwise it was oddly …nice. Being held, he hadn't been held, or really touched, in any positive manner since his mother had died.

Or when Al had sobbed in his arms, before he had gotten the brilliant notion to bring her back. So Ed lay in Envy's arms in the near darkness (which meant one of two things, it was night and all three moons were up- or the red-sun had risen) he felt peaceful, and then blurry eyed he saw yellow pollen pass the entrance to the dwelling.

He had a moment to wonder if that stuff was dangerous before the scent hit him, and his mind felt filled with cotton and his wits addled, and he drifted off to sleep again.

When he woke again, it was to Envy suckling at his neck and ear. Obviously he woke to a boner, but he found himself surprised to find he didn't mind Envy's mouth…or tongue, Ed shivered whimpering when Envy licked a sensitive place.

He retained enough common sense to lean away from the homunculi, before this…whatever it was, could progress to something…else.

Though Ed didn't quite know what that something else was, or why he didn't want something else to happen. Envy however was less inclined to be reasonable, even as he let the blond leave his arms, he tried to kiss and lick Ed's deliciously soft flesh.

"No Envy…" Ed hissed his voice husky from sleep…and other things, Envy pouted at him- even as Ed blushed.

"But you like it…" Envy felt suddenly bold and dared a carcass in-between Ed's pants, feeling him hard and swollen even through the leather pants.

"This proves it." The homunculi purred. Ed was as red as a tomato, but not from anger, although normally that would have been the case. For some reason he couldn't get mad at Envy, even with what he was doing to him.

"Stop-it, it's not what you think." Ed insisted, even as he knew it was…

"Fine Chibi, lie to yourself- you'll come around." Envy growled, going from seducer to sulking in a denied moment. Ed felt bad for a moment, and then he watched as Envy rolled over – his back to him, and felt strangely justified.

He left the dwelling, and seeing only red sky (with an odd yellow tint) and blue soil, cursed the Loll, for there were no metal-trees to hide behind as he got rid of the accursed erection.

He'd have to walk a good distance, and walking was…uncomfortable. Ed sighed, and with a glance at the dwelling decided the more distance between Envy and he when he jerked off, the better. The walk might even do him good…

Ed set off, still blushing as his thoughts dwelled on and thought up even kinkier things he and Envy might be doing if Ed hadn't left. He almost regretted it. Envy hadn't shown much interest in him (that Ed could see) since getting here. Maybe some lewd looks and odd comments- but those could be passed off as 'jokes' to keep himself entertained, and keep Ed wary.

He didn't know what had gotten into Envy, but it was probably due to lust – or boredom, not interest in him. Ed felt both relived that he had thought of a reason for Envy's actions, even as he fell into a semi-depression. He was still…hard, so he wasn't about to go crawling back.

Ed reached the metal-trees, and glanced around for a nicely secluded place. A trio of trees clustered together seemed to suit those needs, and he leaned against the tallest of the three, the rough 'bark' (which was more like cool-moss) created a pleasant contrast to the heat swelling up within him.

Ed blushed as his thoughts raced, and reaching down where Envy had, he whimpered, leathers feeling all too tight, the sound of his zipper was harsh against the muted silence of the metal-forest.

It was for that reason that blushing he bit his lip, and resolved to be silent. The sensation of a touch against his groin was still new, and he wondered at how it had felt when Envy had touched him there. Biting back a whine he thought on how it might have gone if he had let Envy continue.

He thought of Envy's warm mouth and how his tongue had felt lapping at his jaw, and neck…and ear. Shivering from the thoughts and how his nerves sung of the remembered sensations, thinking back he couldn't think of a reason why he had turned away from Envy.

Ed continued to tease himself with those sensations when his mind jumped to thoughts of Envy sucking him off. Biting back a moan he came, his milky white seed splattered against the tree.

Ed blushed, even if there was no one to see, and tucked himself back in, still hard and sensitive; but he didn't know what else to do. He felt for a moment as if he should clean up the evidence, but there was nothing to clean it up with. He watched in fascination as the tree sucked the liquid into itself, leaving no evidence, and leaving Ed feeling oddly used.

He heard a low growl echo, and a snarling-hiss answer it. Ed turned quickly in that direction, seeing a Loll fighting another Loll, and a smaller –and male (making the two fighting females?!) Loll watching.

The females weren't slapping each other, or being 'girly' about the fight. This mating was clearly serious business, and the fight escalated as Ed watched. One female had long ago drawn blood, and Ed noticed both females were scarred from past fights, so this probably happened every 'mating season'.

Ed winched as the bigger female took a chunk out of the other female. He was amazed at the amount of blood, the other female, retraining some sense, ran off to find another male. Ed felt like an intruder as he watched the male go to the female, who dwarfed him by a foot, lick at her wounds. Ed quietly left, thinking on what he had witnessed.

So in the Loll, females dominated, at least in mating season. Which meant rules were likely different here, and laws just as much- if not more so. This would mean they'd have to be careful when mating season was over…

Ed's mind persistently brought back Envy… and his reason for leaving him this morning. He couldn't think of a reason he acted the way he had, other then perhaps the fact that he had never done anything like that.

With anyone, and the new sensations, while pleasant, had startled him in their intensity- and he had done what he usually did when something new and pleasant had happened to him - retreated.

-Envy-

I honestly didn't intend to do such a thing, yet, how could I resist? Everything seemed right, like it was supposed to happen that way and yet Ed had run from me. This wasn't supposed to happen. I know I acted ridiculous and yet it was honorable and terrible of him to leave me like that.

I have never had such morning encounter. Usually those I fuck I leave before morning, or send away during the night. It excited me far too much, and even now, disgusted with myself, I am still aroused at the thought of touching him, holding him, and licking him.

I huff, amused at myself in a morbid sense, I don't even know if he has been with anyone. I know Roy Mustang showed an interest in him, but if Ed knew it, or even guessed, I can not fathom how he could have missed the obvious hints- none the less if he is innocent (and I have a sinking feeling he is, as Lust guessed) then I have made a horrendous error this morning.

One I indeed to rectify…by wooing Chibi…

And I have the perfect plan for doing so.

AN: I can just see Envy smirking while saying that…-blushes- this is my first real dealings with writing slash (though I've been reading it for nearly ten years now) so please be kind…-bows- Thank-you for the reviews! I think this will be five-part, and hopefully finished half-way by the 25th.
